Houston Community College are the latest Higher Ed institution to realize the benefits of using PC Management software.

The college has just installed NetSupport School on the 30 computers located in its state-of-the-art library facility and for librarian Marcia Braun the product has made the day to day administration of the PCs a whole lot easier.

"NetSupport School has proved to have many benefits both in terms of keeping students who use the library focused on their work and in the time saving it has brought to my role. The library has a classroom with 30 computers and needed teaching aids but the room was not designed for a central screen. A tool that helped share information between computers was the answer and NetSupport School fitted the bill."

"NetSupport School is an excellent tool for keeping students focused on what is being presented to them. For example, rather than hoping they show an interest in what is displayed on a whiteboard at the front of the room, the tutor can show their screen directly onto the students desktops, freezing their keyboard and mouse at the same time. The product goes further in that a piece of work on a student screen can also be displayed around the room making NetSupport School an ideal collaboration tool for group working.”

“For those of us who have to look after the Library PC’s day in day out there are a number of time saving admin options and a real bonus for me is the ability to automatically Power On and Log On all computers from my machine at the start of the day. And the reverse at the end of the day.”
